Just got done reading a great post by Smooth Hegemon, you can check it out here. http://mog.com/Smooth_Hegemon/blog_post/38986 It got me thinking about my days as a teacher. 10 years I spent in the St. Paul school system, and I don't regret a thing. While the past 5 months have been tough, MOG has been somewhat of a release for me. It has been great to be able to come and discuss things that ar...

Since a search for The Go-Go's on MOG gives you nothing and since I had the gall to make Beauty And The Beat one of my nominations for the Great Mog 501, I guess I should put my money where my mouth is and write up a post about the band. The Go-Go's were formed in 1978. Stylistically, their music spans pop-punk, surf, new wave, and rock. Their towering achievement is the album Beauty And The Be...
